Free Book - Of Blood and Honey

Update: I emailed Nightshade and they are sending these out by hand. Last time I checked, they hoped to get all of today's out before end of business, but I suspect they had more requests than they anticipated. Give them another day or so (this offer will stay open until March 29) before you resend if you haven't received it.

Nightshade Books is celebrating St. Patrick's Day by giving everyone a free copy of Of Blood and Honey ($7.99 Kindle), by Stina Leicht (they couldn't figure out how to send us all a pint via email).

Book Description
Fallen angels and the fey clash against the backdrop of Irish/English conflicts of the 1970s in this stunning debut novel by Stina Leicht.

Liam never knew who his father was. The town of Derry had always assumed that he was the bastard of a protestant--His mother never spoke of him, and Liam assumed he was dead. But when the war between the fallen, and the fey began to heat up, Liam and his family are pulled into a conflict that they didn't know existed. A centuries old conflict between supernatural forces seems to mirror the political divisions in 1970s era Ireland, and Liam is thrown headlong into both conflicts. Only the direct intervention of Liam's real father, and a secret catholic order dedicated to fighting "The Fallen" can save Liam... from the mundane and supernatural forces around him, and from the darkness that lurks within him.


To get the free book, send an email to BloodAndHoneyGiveAway@nightshadebooks.com. You will get a DRM-free EPUB back in your email. Save it, add it to Calibre and you can then convert it for Kindle and transfer it from there. Feel free to ask questions here, if you can't get Calibre to work (or over on the KindleKorner yahoo group, where I'm a moderator and there are a lot of people who like to talk about the Kindle and who use Calibre). Nightshade is being generous in giving this book away, but they don't have the resources to troubleshoot everyone out there that has problems converting for their individual ereaders.
